Professional Experience 3 (Primary) unit (EMT614)

Introduction

The third Professional Experience placement (PE3) provides students with the opportunity to increase their familiarity with the school context, and to further develop their understanding of teaching practice in relation to the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers. PE3 begins with active observation and is characterised by increasing engagement in teaching and learning activities, building upon students’ first and second Professional Experience placements. There is an expectation that by the end of PE3, students should demonstrate the capacity to assume responsibility for approximately 80% of a full-time teaching load.

 

This placement is undertaken in in accordance with the Professional Experience Calendar. All students must be aware of the scheduled Professional Experience dates and be prepared to undertake a placement during the scheduled time. The dates of Professional Experience may only be changed in exceptional, unplanned circumstances. Date variations are assessed on a case-by-case basis by the Coordinator, Professional Experience in accordance with the Professional Experience Guidelines. Variations can be submitted via the Variation Request Form.
